"What brings you here, lady Eve?" I said.

"I...want to apologize," she said.

What? Apologize? For what?

"Why do you want to apologize?"

I look at her. She was shaking and fidgeting a little as she was nervous. In the original novel, Lady Eve is always confident! But now, she likes a scared cat not wanting to take a bath.

"I want to apologize about what happened before. At the gathering?" she said.

Oh, I remember now. You made fun of me because I was his lord's wife and you weren't.

"Yes, I remember." I commented.

"Yeah, so I was thinking...maybe we can be friends...." she asked, hesitantly.

Friend? Why does she want to befriend me? In the original novel, Lady Eve couldn't care less about Lady Rose. She thought of her as a nuisance...

"Okay, I believe in you." I said.

Her face lit up like a dog just received a new toy.

"I think it's going well. She didn't expect a thing," she answered.

"Good," he said. Lady Samatha was also pleased.

"Now, it's time for step 2," she said, smiling evilly
